Details

The Drake Guardian Elite Uninsulated Breathable Waist High Wader in King sizes feature 100% waterproof/windproof/breathable Guardian Elite 3-layer fabric treated with DWR (Durable Water Repellent). Also includes Taped seams and the NEW Buckshot Mudder Boot (Nearly Half the Weight of Previous Models). With optimal performance and comfort in mind, the boot is nearly half the weight of previous models (5.4 lbs. to 2.6 lbs.). Maintaining 1600g Thinsulate insulation throughout, the new Buckshot Mudder Boot also provides critical heat retention in extreme temperatures. A snugger, more streamlined, ankle and true-to-fit boot prevents feet from slipping or dislodging in muddy environments, while the Buckshot Mudder sole design ensures you can tackle any terrain with ease. The right boot features the iconic Drake logo built into the side.

NEW X-Crossing-Back Shoulder Straps, NEW Improved Materials and Construction and Articulated Knees with Hydro-Flex. An articulated knee delivers both durability and freedom of motion to the new Guardian Elite Breathable Wader. Our rugged HD2 material allows for maximum protection from abrasions encountered in the field, while Hydro-Flex technology provides optimal flexibility and movement.

The most important component a wading hunter expects out of his waders is for them to perform without leaking. If you are tired of getting wet in the field season after season, look no further. Despite having the lowest wader return rate according to our dealers in comparison to competitors, we continue to enhance the quality of our materials and construction to develop the best waders on the market. To us, good ain't good enough. The new Guardian Elite' Breathable Wader is built with a more durable, thicker, and wider seam tape that creates an even stronger bond to the material, which helps prevent lifting and creasing, thus ensuring against seam leaks.

New Boot is a VERY TIGHT FIT; ORDER UP IN BOOT SIZE !!!

by Bobby O ; St. Louis

I was back for another pair of these after 3+ great years of 55/60 days hunting a year, and some trout fishing thrown in for good measure. This review is just to inform that the new boot redesign is REALLY TIGHT TO EVEN GET INTO ! I always wore a heavy boot sock in the old style, ordered the exact same size, AND COULDN'T EVEN GET A BARE FOOT IN THE BOOT, it was so tight !<br> I'm still a fan; just ordered an 11 King, hopefully to get into these GREAT WADERS AGAIN !<br> I love the pockets on the leg front, the suspenders are top notch construction, and the old pair wore LIKE IRON !<br> Hopefully, a size up will do the trick for me !
